As long as we find the correct pins on the module we'll be ok right? This is what mine says...

So long as I match up mosi to si (etc) ??

Hi Hexperience,
Your picture is a XL2500-D03 module,it's same as mine!

I think deviation should work fine with CC2500-PA module as well,if you got correctly pin connection.

Thanks, good to know it will work, but I'm wondering about this:

Does that mean I have to put 3.3v to ALL 3 of those places?

Would anyone have a diagram of how to wire in these modules? The photo in the manual is a bit hard to see where the wires are really going.

"Does that mean I have to put 3.3v to ALL 3 of those places?"

yes,you are right!

if you use XL2500-D03 module,you should put 3.3v to VCC & PAEN.

I'm not sure. Datasheet for very similar module:

PA_EN: When Tx status set '1', Rx set '0'
LNA_EN: When Rx status set '1', Tx set '0'

Possible PA_EN and LNA_EN have to be mutually inverted.

The next release is imminent. Mostly it is waiting for:

b) me to update the documentation

After the recent discussions - does this require the Modulinstallation.pdf file to be updated? (I need to give the module and radio to my friend for soldering and want to be sure he has the information required.)

Thanks.

No, they can both be enabled at the same time. the PA_EN powers up the power-amp (transmit amp). The LNA_EN powers up the low-noise-amplifier (receiver amp). It is perfectly valid for both to be enabled simultaneously though it does draw more power that way. Since we don't have enoiugh pins to actually manage these connections, tying them always on is what I've done. It is possible it will reduce the overall performance of the CC2500 module, but I haven't really tested yet. Note that this has nothing to do with the CC2500. These connections are (as far as I'm aware) only for controlling the external amplifier

I have updated the table in the pdf so that it is hopefully correct now.

Does the XL2500 not have a Low Noise Amp? Will that be a problem? Specifically I'll be looking for long range (with telemetry when we get to that point).

The one I got has both PA and LNA.

Which XL2500 is yours, D02 or D03?

From what I'm seeing around:
D02: both PA and LNA, 20dbm
D03: just PA, 15dbm or 16dbm

%@#$%@%%!!! I hate ebay!

Yes, I have the D03 but the ebay listing said it was 20dbm... Now I have to order again and wait... crud.

Thanks for catching that sbstnp.... I wouldn't have known...

edit--- AHHH I just did it again... I just ordered from the link posted above without reading it. It says it's 17dbm and "work distance" is 800m (But that it's up to 150ma so I don;t know...)

Lucky these things are cheap! I'll have a nice collection by the end.

I'll hook up the xl2500-d03 for now...
